DOUBLE TAXATION.

j. A new tax law will be one of the
prominent features of legislation
during the present session Of tn eleg.
islature, and at the expense Of being
misjudged by those who have given
the matter little consideration, the
HERALD would suggest that radical
reform is needed in the matter of
the relative relations of real-estate
and real-estate mortgages, so far as
taxation is considered. The present
system is too obviously unjust to be

1t seems possible in this way
Assess the real.estate to the holder

these receipts receivable by the mort

either principal or interest on the
mortgage for which they were given.
If need be, the law might sanction
clause in the mortgage which would
bind the mortgagor to pay the taxes
on the entire property. providing
the arrangement was mutually
